as soon as llama lets me know the server is ready, i will post. in all likely hood, llama will post here himself, he's pretty good like that.

the 12 starting sites and 16VP sites are all in set locations, and can all be seen by starting an SP game with 12 players, 3 of them water, all set to human.

the 'magic sites: 55' is a general indicator of how common magic sites will be in any given square; i'm not sure exactly what the 55 refers to, but higher means more magic. Typical for Early Age is 45, but generally people like more sites, and it doesn't really benefit anyone nation more than another, so I bumped it up to 55.

I believe the VP provinces contain fixed location sites that would be in place no matter what the general site setting. Additionally, to my understanding, the sites bordering the VP provinces are set to 'many sites' in the map editor.

Lastly, Jazzepi suggested removing MoD from the game. It is easily exploitable, and many find it a cheap-*** spell at any rate. I'm open to suggestion on this one, but I was thinking we just leave it in the game, and simply ban any MoD + retreat exploitation. It's Ench8 and A6, we have hard research on, making it pretty hard to get to without forgoing other necessary stuff, and you really have to invest in a mage or have a pretender to make it castable. I think if someone gets to the spell and wants to use it, they should be able to as long as they don't exploit it. Opinions?

Ominirizon, there's a mod that takes out the bad version of MoD and replaces it with an interesting one that doesn't suffer from the same problem as the original. Twan made it, and I've used it before.

My mistake, apperantly if more than 4 sites are given. Four random ones are chosen from them.

alright, Jazzepi, that sounds like a good idear; let's do it. I've PM'd llama and asked him to include that MoD. Everyone be sure to download it.

Also, make sure you have the latest version of CBM (CBM 1.3). And make sure you have it turned on when you make your pretenders.

I think llama has the game set up for us. Be sure to send them to his server with "DarwinsZorro" in your subject line (no qoutes). I think there is a special address for pretenders to his server. See his FAQ for more info. Let's try and get off the ground in 48 hours.
